No Malice Responds To Lil Wayne's Twitter Diss

Latifah Muhammad — Sun, 27 May 2012 17:30:45 +0000

As the battle between Pusha T and Young Money rages on, Clipse member, No Malice has jumped in the disagreement. Formerly called "Malice," Pusha T's brother went on Twitter yesterday to respond to Weezy's post on the social networking site late last week.

"Well I LOVE Pusha!" he wrote. "That's my blood and I ain't never kiss em," making reference to Weezy and Birdman's infamous lip-lock.

Pusha T has yet to release a rebuttal to the on-going rift, but on Friday Weezy put his anger to music, dropping a snippet of the diss record "Goulish." Judging by it's repsonse on the 'Net, the upbeat track may have (slightly) missed the mark to compete as an actual diss record.

Rappers need to learn to just get along.

Pusha T Talks Working With The-Dream On Debut Album [VIDEO]

Alvin aqua Blanco — Fri, 25 May 2012 13:32:37 +0000

Pusha T has the people going. The younger half of VA rap group the Clipse, and a soloist on Kanye's G.O.O.D. Music, Push A Ton's latest single "Exodus 23:1" is thought to be a not so veiled diss towards Drake. The track even inspired a "Fuk Pusha T" reaction from Lil Wayne. MTV News caught up with Push to talk about his recording work with R&B crooner The-Dream and coincidentally how the RicoBeats produced "Exodus 23:1" kicked off their working relationship.

"It really started as far as I went with this beat from Rico. We were like, 'Yo, Dream would just sound amazing on the record, period.'" recalled Pusha. "So we sent it out and it came back so quick... Personally, I never thought the record was going to come back this quick."

Peep the rest of the video below to see how The-Dream is helping Pusha with the songwriting on his forthcoming debut solo album.

"I Don't Like" Producer Young Chop Disses Pusha T

Jarrett B. (@AOKJAY) — Thu, 24 May 2012 21:08:55 +0000

Looks like Wayne wasn't the only person who felt a way about Pusha T's "Exodus 23:1" record. Young Chop, producer of Chief Keef's "I Don't Like" anthem, took offense to a bar featured in the record.

"You can keep yo beats N***a, we much rather share your b-tch, n***a, b-tch n***a,” spits Pusha.

Chop's disappointment with the G.O.O.D family is well documented, stemming from the producer's initial rift with Kanye West over the remix of "I Don't Like," which was featured as a revamped version of the beat with Jadakiss, Kanye, Pusha, and Big Sean appearing on the track. Although Chop has stated that the matter has been settled, Pusha's bars have freshly opened the wound.

"f-ck (Pusha T) am on that," tweeted Chop. "am on that with yo bicth A$$ @PUSHA_T. this ni--a made a song about me."

What's come out of Pusha T's mouth is clearly some sh-t Chop don't like.

The History Of The YMCMB vs. G.O.O.D. Music Cold War [PHOTOS/VIDEO]

Kazeem Famuyide (@RealLifeKaz) — Thu, 24 May 2012 16:54:09 +0000

Two of the most dominant, divisive and successful crews in Hip-Hop are G.O.O.D. Music and YMCMB. At one time, the two factions headed by Kanye West and Lil Wayne, respectively, were quite chummy. Somewhere along the way however, as their success grew and grew, their friendship went astray.

But to understand how it went all bad, you have to remember that at one time it was all good (or G.O.O.D.). Hip-Hop Wired takes a look at the long and storied history of the YMCMB vs. G.O.O.D. Music Cold War. Whose side are you on?

Lil Wayne Says "Fuk Pusha T And Anybody That Love Em"

Jarrett B. (@AOKJAY) — Thu, 24 May 2012 15:05:35 +0000

Finally, a name has been said! After countless subliminals between both Pusha T and Drake over the last year, Lil Wayne steps up to the plate in defense of his artist. "Fuk pusha t and anybody that love em," tweeted Lil Tunechi last night after Push A Ton's latest track, "Exodus 23:1," thought to contain shots at Drizzy, started making the Internet rounds.

The irony of this move by the YMCMB general is that he and the Clipse have had disagreements dating back to the We Got It For Cheap series and Hell Hath No Fury days. Who do you think "Mr. Me Too" was about people? Shouts to @GillieDaKid on the video cameo. That's a whole different story.

Pusha has claimed on numerous occasions after Wayne was released from jail in November '10 that their differences have been settled since. Personally, I never believed this to be true as a serious Clipse supporter. Since the release of Tha Carter IV August '11, Pusha found himself on the defensive for his G.O.O.D brother and CEO, Kanye West.

The source of disrespect stems from the "It's Good" record, which included direct shots at Jay-Z . Drake admitted in an interview with Funkmaster Flex during his "Take Care" promo run that he was aware of Wayne's actions and didn't have a problem with them. Depending on who you ask, Drake's opening bars on the record can be interpreted as shots as well. He recites lyrics which claim certain rappers have gotten "too comfy" in this game. It can be argued the alliance against "The Throne" was formed then. According to BET, Drake made it clear that he understood there was a competition that existed between both Wayne and Hov.

In September and December '11 respectively, Pusha stepped to the plate to address Drake via his "Dreams Money Can Buy" and "Sweet" freestyles. One of Pusha's more memorable direct subliminals was featured on the "Dreams Money Can Buy" freestyle, where he says "Rappers on their sophomores, actin' like they boss lords/Fame such a funny thing for sure when n—as start believing all those encores."

Fast forward to February 2012; Wayne took to the stage to celebrate both his and Drake's album success at his Las Vegas Cash Money Pre-Grammy event at Paramount Studios. After announcing that Christina Milian was the newest signee to YMCMB, Wayne delivered another round of shots at Jay-Z and Kanye West. He ensured those in attendance that his red bone didnt want "to watch the throne." By this time, Drake and G.O.O.D's Common were just finishing up a quick lyrical war, which was offically squashed after the two bright skin brothers met at the NBA All Star Game.

This brings us to Pusha's "Exodus 23:1" record from last night. He returned to throwing shots at the Canadian rapper with The-Dream riding shotgun. Forgive the speculation, but does anybody else find it ironic that Pusha picked The-Dream for the chorus? It is documented that the crooner has a minor issue with The Weeknd, who's connected to Drake.

Now that Wayne has stepped up and said Pusha's name with Drake somewhere penning a batch of new subliminals, it's likely this will be one of the more entertaining "wars" in recent memory if anything comes from it. There is too much history between this love triangle for nothing to happen now. We should be in store for some G.O.O.D Music.
